Vrydemalaan 2, 9713 WSDOT Dome: Gaia and the Milky Way (EN)
This Wednesday, come and gaze at the stars and explore our galaxy inside DOT's 20-meter planetarium. We will begin by observing the night sky from Earth's perspective and guide you through the various constellations. Then, we’ll embark on a journey beyond Earth to explore our home galaxy, the Milky Way. Thanks to the latest data from the Gaia space observatory, we now know more about the Milky Way than ever before. In this planetarium experience, we will showcase the most recent maps of our galaxy, featuring over a billion stars from the Gaia Data Release 2.
